Today is World Hand Hygiene Day — a perfect time to recommit our efforts to work as a team to achieve the organization’s hand hygiene compliance goal.
Performing appropriate hand hygiene is one of the most important measures in preventing health care-associated infections.
The vital behaviors of hand hygiene are: Clean-Remind-Thank.
- Clean in and out of patient care areas.
- Remind someone if they forget.
- Say “thanks” if someone reminds you.
